I have tried this and it works great. Might be better than stock.

"Where" (GPS based app with location information, on stores, dining, tourist attractions etc.)

Is another good one, great for touring or rediscovering your city. Its like Yelp on steroids. I think it includes a Yelp app too if I'm not mistaken

Bookmarking Google Reader & Using the bookmark Widget is the best I've used so far. Looks great on the HTC Browser.

Anybody know of an app like slide to unlock where we can preview a notification and view it by unlocking or be able to dismiss it without having to unlock?

PURE Rss is pretty good.

NewRob is also good, connects with google reader (i like how it inbeds the website when clicking on a link instead of opening the actual browser)

Handcent SMS has sms popup giving you this ability for sms. I want the ability for calender items but I will settle for text for now! Try it out, its free and very useful!

I like Abduction it is hilarious.

Also, ASTRO, a much needed file explorer.

Key Ring is actually really useful and helped clean out my money clip haha.

Task Manager is very helpful and should have been included.

Last one, A market place haha. It is intuitive and I can't wait to try the one on 1.6!

I'll try handcent, but yeah I want something that will handle ALL notifications. Or at least give us access to the sliding notification screen while its still locked. Know what I mean?

You want a WM6.5 lock screen. Haha. Handcent will break through and you can reply without sliding and even adds speech to text capability.

I would keep my eyes open it probably won't be long before someone hears this.

Klaxon is on android now, I always wondered where he went. Has anyone tried his alarm yet?

[Rafy0003]

Yes I just tried this and we have SPEECH TO TEXT!!! I love it...lol Kind of off but it works for short phrases. It is convienient. And astro file explorer works great. Anything to play avi's?

[riironman]
